Poll: The Vega Review Thread.

[silversurfer]

I see the video 0:56 hitch but I dont know its exactly in the game or not, some fps drop shows. Really at the end they need to especially emphasise conclusive stats on the min fps recorded but perhaps not shown

The 56 is already nerfed as its memory, power capped and is throttling any overclocking. But also the 64 is possibly too constricted so you may end up comparing oc 56 to stock 64

I thought hardware HDR was some extreme deal not likely to appear on your average consumer monitor. Someone said you dont want HDR because its going to be painful when suddenly the sunlight in a game blinds you in real life.

Spoiler: old slides

Strange light effect and more of a live video here by him here :

Interesting ...

I have a fear they will nerf the 56 to make the 64 look better....

Unless there is a release day (review days) driver that uplifts both but the 64 more ...

 

[Martini1991]

The 56's already reviewed, it can't be nerfed really.

 

[old gamer]

Im beginning to wonder if amd have any real interest in the 64 and it's the 56 they want to push

They'll nerf it plenty themselves if they don't stick to a £350/$399 price (or close to it!!)

Inflated pricing due to lack of supply?? Plenty in stock last time checked. Maybe amd think gamers are thick? Who knows.

Might be harder to get in america. There is a lack of supply of the 2 versions people actually want, aio and le versions. Though the aio versions seems a bit flaky based on 3 people here alone having to return theirs. Seeing as that version is clocked higher and has more power draw i'm finding it hard to believe that's a coincidence. Don't think any of the blower version owners have had any issues so far.

if I can get a blower for the 450 and 100 for the ek block I'm sorted with 2 360's it will run cool enough to oc well

I'm always function over form, so the sliver thing is pointless. The water version is massively overpriced.

Depends on the buyer, seen a few people say they prefer the aluminium shroud so obviously its something some are waiting on.

Whatever floats the buyers boat, their money. Will never have a glass case, so can't pass judgement on those that show their inwards.

Arguably even the base blower is pointless for Vega64; with the TDP I would expect many to put a block on it, so having that blower cooler seems a bit of a waste. Something like the MSI Sea Hawk would be good.
